Tanjug News Agency (Serbia) September 20, 2007 "Serbia in EU could discuss borders" -In a[n]...interview with the Arabic Al Jazeera TV channel, Foreign Minister Jeremiæ has warned that "riots could once again rock the Balkans," and called for caution. "I believe that we are now in a state of unstable balance, and that if there were to be any unfortunate developments and we were not cautious enough, we might push the Balkans once again into discord and dissatisfaction." LONDON - Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremiæ told London daily The Times the Balkans can have a bright future only within Europe. However, in an interview with the paper on Thursday, he warned that Serbs might "turn their backs on the EU in the event of an unfair outcome over the Kosovo question." "Serbia is suffering a cooling of public support for the idea of Europe," said Jeremiæ, adding that "I am afraid that if things go wrong, if the future status of Kosovo is not handled well, then there will be a dominant majority within Serbia that will say, ‘This is not fair, it is humiliating, they (the EU) don’t want us,' and they will turn their backs on the Union," Jeremiæ pointed out. Jeremiæ also said that it would be "pointless at this time to guess how Belgrade would react to any possible unilateral proclamation of Kosovo independence," but stressed that Serbia would not use force. If Serbia were within the Union, he said, then "borders would have a different meaning and could be discussed." The Times added that Jeremiæ nevertheless "refused to clarify what this might mean for Kosovo." New riots could rock Balkans In a separate interview with the Arabic Al Jazeera TV channel, Foreign Minister Jeremiæ has warned that "riots could once again rock the Balkans," and called for caution. "I believe that we are now in a state of unstable balance, and that if there were to be any unfortunate developments and we were not cautious enough, we might push the Balkans once again into discord and dissatisfaction," Al Jazeera quoted the foreign minister in an English-language interview to be broadcast on Friday. On Wednesday, following talks with the British prime minister's chief foreign policy adviser Simon McDonald in London, Jeremiæ said that attention should be focussed on the negotiations so that a compromise could be found for Kosovo. =============== Group Moderator: [Е-ПОШТА ЗАШТИЋЕНА] page at http://magazine.sorabia.net for more informations about current situation in Serbia http://www.sorabia.net Slusajte GLAS SORABIJE nas talk internet-radio (Serbian Only) http://radio.sorabia.net Yahoo!
